Nitro T4106 9x10 with Jebs Headhunter XF .385 Choke
Patterns should improve after I run some JB Bore Cleaner followed up with Bore Brite spun with a drill on a brush wrapped with green scotch brite pad. The inside of the barrel is far from being shiny.

What size brush are you wrapping in the scotch brite?

Not sure the brush size yet, but I will keep you posted.

I am using a Indian Creek. 385 and ninja 9.5 TSS loads. I get about the same pattern. Its unreal what 410's will do with tss. I have the mossberg 500 410 TSS turkey gun. And i have the mossberg sa 410ga TSS turkey gun. I would like to try the Indian Creek. 390 out.
No luck with the scotchbrite and brush method. Even wrapping a 22cal brush
is too big.
410 brush wrapped with a patch smeared with the non embedding bore cleaner spun on a drill is putting a good shine on it. Couple spots need to be worked over a little more, but with few more passes, it will look like a mirror from one end to the other.

Did the pattern improve after the deep cleaning?
Temps haven't been warm enough to shoot again. Will post when I do.
I was able to spin 0000 steel wool on a brush smeared with bore brite/Kroil oil down the barrel

Shot again today, I would say no noticeable improvement on paper with the TSS. Also would say that I don't feel that my polishing results were equal to what I did with my 12ga being I couldn't run scotchbrite on a brush down through it.
I wish I did a before and after with the 3in lead Winchester 7.5s at 30yds. I do feel that although they were relatively weak patterns, that it did benefit some from the work I did put into the barrel.

I will be running the Nitro T4106 9x10s with the Jebs Headhunter XF choke.
3 shots yielded pellet counts of 182, 196, and 200 at 40yds.

Ran one through the 410 at lunch. Same Jebs Heahunter XF at 40yds, but this time with a Nitro T4106 straight 9. This is what I will be using in NH to be compliant with their laws.
